Voraussetzungen / Organisatorisches
Participants can acquire certificates (5 or 6 ECTS) for the following modules:

A.] Fortgeschrittene Themen der Sozialstrukturanalyse
C.1] Bildungssoziologie: Migration und Bildung
C.2] Fortgeschrittene Themen der Migration und Integration

Participants who do not study sociology as main subject can gain equivalent certificates. This is based on the prerequisite that students attend the lectures, prepare for class (compulsory reading) and give a presentation. Additionally, students are expected to write a seminar paper. The language of instruction will optionally be English or German, in order to facilitate inter-national students to attend the course.

Inhalt
During the last 60 years, European countries have increasingly become destinations for (in-ternational) immigrants and asylum seekers. Despite being a core issue for the respective national governments, many of these immigrant groups fare worse than natives in terms of labor market outcomes. Moreover, there are considerable differences between the EU countries, in how these immigrants are integrating into the respective labor markets. Yet, systematic research that explains these differences is still somewhat scarce.

This course aims to give a general overview of the cross-country differences in labor market integration and introduce crucial theoretical arguments brought forth to explain these differ-ences. We will particularly focus on the interplay between the immigrants individual characteristics and the institutional characteristics of the different destination countries.

In terms of structure, the course consists of three parts. The first part gives an overview of the immigrant population and respective labor market integration in Europe. Subsequently, theoretical arguments to explain these labor market outcomes are introduced. The second part then deals with data sources (and indicators) available to test the theoretical arguments. The third part sets out to assess the empirical evidence on how important the respective explanations are. The class will close with a thinktank on directions for future research.
